Chapter 2 The Pillar of the Cloud Section 20 The Difference Between the Pillars of Shina
In the evening of that day, when the helper returned from Zhulan Tuya, he saw the big toad Uenqi in a homespun robe crouching in the corner of the wall, clawing at the stone wall.
Zhulan Tuya walked over happily, but she heard the big toad sighing: "Alas, life is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and it should be viewed as such." What is a great task from heaven, what is deliberate, what is ruthless, what is refined into steel, in the end, it is all reduced to a handful of loess, and everything is empty. From now on, I will let go of the cliff and escape into the empty door, and you will not stop me. ”
Julan Tuya burst out laughing, sat down in front of Unchi, stroked his head, and said, "Did you dig a wall in a girl's room and escape through the empty door?
The toad Wu Enqi raised his head and said: "Isn't the mastermind Si Qinbari? You don't want to think about who I am, how can this little thing be difficult to defeat me? I think I, Wu Enqi, knows astronomy and geography, knows everything from the past to the present, investigates everything, knows everything and knows everything......
Zhulan Tuya interjected: "And you can also travel through time and space, and you have practiced the fighting spirit of a king and a tyrant." Aren't you confident this morning? Did you go to a duel with Arslene and lose it?"
Unqi squinted his eyes, after practicing the witchcraft "Otherworldly Mud", Unqi's self-confidence exploded, he thought that even if he faced the Demon Emperor Tak Eberon and the Demon Leader Kanu Layman, as long as they dared to take his killing moves, even if they didn't die, they would have to lose a piece of flesh. As for Arslen, Unqi didn't take him seriously at all.
But in the blink of an eye, Uenqi's self-confidence has dropped to the bottom, his "Otherworldly Mud" is indeed a powerful killing move, but his opponent is not an iron pot that cannot be moved, not to mention the Demon Emperor Tak Eberon and the Demon Leader Kanu Layman, even if he meets the stupid bastard Arslen, he can calmly dodge that little strangeness, and then beat the toad Unqi to pieces with one punch.
So Uenqi squinted his eyes and opened his big mouth to boast, but he had nothing to say, so he turned his head and hit his head against the wall. When Zhulan Tuya saw his actions, she thought that he had suffered a defeat at Burning Ridge. The fierce general Arslen, who was stationed in Burning Ridge, once wanted to be rude to Zhulan Tuya, and Wu Enqi went out to teach him a lesson for her, but he suffered a defeat, although the result was not very glorious, but Zhulan Tuya's heart was warm.
Julan Tuya took the big toad to her chest, kissed him suddenly, then turned and ran away. It wasn't until the dead of night that she slipped back quietly and peeked into the cave.
The cave was empty, and Zhulan Tuya was disappointed, but she turned around, and the young man in cloth who had invited her to eat "Osmanthus Lotus Slices" ten days ago was standing behind her with a straight face. Because of her kiss, he reverted to human form.
Julan Tuya stared up at the heroic young man in front of him blankly, leaned her forehead on his chest, lowered her head and said, "You treat me very well, much better than bastard Aleph treats me." But you're weird, and it scares me......"
By this time, Unqi had an idea of his state: when he was angry or in crisis, he would become a faceless, remorse and tears would turn him back into a human, he would become a toad if he disliked the girls around him, and he would become a human or faceless again when he was kissed by a girl who truly loved him.
Unqi wrapped his only arm around Zhulan Tuya's weak shoulders, but Unqi's heart was full of confusion, whether he wanted to or not, love or not, his fate was closely tied to her love for him.
If he and she could see through each other's minds, he would find that her heart was full of happiness and apprehension, and she would also find that his heart was full of helplessness and loss. It has to be said that the closest people cannot know each other, and many times it is both the saddest regret and the most pitiful tolerance.
Through the window of the chamber, the fire and the night breeze lingered, and in the chamber, Wuenqi and Julan Tuya slept in each other's arms.
The next morning, Julan Tuya placed a piece of grilled fish in front of Unqi and tilted her head to watch him eat.
Unqi frowned, "What are you looking at me for?
Zhulan Tuya smiled and said, "You said yesterday that you would give up the cliff, did you stop thinking about those bad ideas from now on?"
Unch was silent, ten months before he had been reeling from the foresight of a tragic future. Yesterday, he foresaw the same future again, and it almost made all his thoughts empty. But Unqi was the kind of man who found the road ahead to be treacherous, and he was inspired to try it.
Zhulan Tuya naturally couldn't see the turmoil in the depths of Wu Enqi's heart, she stroked her chest and said, "Since you don't want those bad ideas, can you accompany me to Xiaogufeng?"
Wu Enqi exclaimed, "What are you doing at Xiaogu Peak? Isn't there only a bare stone peak there?"
Zhulan Tuya said excitedly: "Xiaogufeng was originally just a barren mountain and a wild ridge that no one went to, but Hasen said that many foreign boatmen had built houses on it, and they were holding a meeting on it. It is said that everything is sold at the Xiaogufeng rally, and the price is only one-third of that of the ten-mile shop. I heard that they also hired workers, and the wages were extraordinarily generous. ”
Wu Enqi was taken aback, the foreign boat people mentioned by Zhulan Tuya were naturally the believers of the Pure Land Sect, after the victory of the White River, the believers of the Pure Land Sect scattered in the various demon domains rushed to the Pure Land Mountain with their families, they had no place to live, and the small lonely peak hanging on the periphery of the Pure Land Sect naturally became their place to stay.
The believers of the Pure Land Sect occupied Xiaogufeng, which was not a big deal, but unfortunately, the place where Wuenqi and Musa agreed to hide troops was also Xiaogufeng. If this continues, in a month's time, Mussa and the others will surely crash headlong into their opponent's lair, and then all of Unqi's plans will be explained.
Unqi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and agreed to Zhulan Tuya's request without hesitation. Zhulan Tuya didn't expect Uenqi to be so happy and agreed to take her to the carnival. With a sweet smile on her face, she excitedly found Hassen, the elder of Langyue Village, and borrowed water bladders and dry food from him.
At noon on this day, they set off in a hurry on a straw raft. It took a whole day to rush from Greedy Wolf Peak to Xiaogu Peak, and when they arrived at Xiao Gu Peak, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
The once desolate and uninhabited Little Lonely Peak is now a different scene. On the main peak of Xiaogu Peak, I don't know when an eight-sided Optimus Giant Pillar was erected, and the whole body of the giant pillar was made of fine iron, as if a long Dinghai God Needle pierced the sky.
On that giant pillar of optimus hung countless iron cables, and the iron cables and cable cars connected all the low ridges and cliffs near Xiaogu Peak. On top of the low mountains and cliffs, tens of thousands of tents were set up by many Pure Land followers in strange costumes, and they were holding large-scale gatherings.
Unki took Zhulan Tuya's hand and wandered around the assembly, looking around. This grand gathering is rich in goods and low enough, but there are not many people who come here. In addition to the believers of the Pure Land Sect, who were busy in the assembly, there were very few boat people and civilians who came here to catch the meeting.
Uenqi walked up to a stall selling glass pots, and gloated, "Foreigner, your business is not very good, how many pots have you sold today?"
The glassmaker who set up the stall said disapprehantly: "No, business is really difficult." The boat people in Jinyun Mountain are too poor to sell cheaply, and they can't afford it. It will be fine in a few days, and when the demon clan and the boat people reach an alliance, countless merchant ships of the demon clan will pass by the Yunyun Mountain, and then the business will be easy to do. ”
Unqi asked, "Are you going to sell things to the demons?"
The glassmaker who set up the stall said, "Of course not, the demons are not short of these." The merchant ships of the demons have to cross the sea of illusory fire, or travel to and from the White River, and the mountain is their best transit point. The merchant fleet of the demon clan naturally wants to hire boat people warriors to escort them, and the boat people have earned money from the demons, so they will naturally come to buy my glass pot. That's what our Sect Master said. ”
Unch picked up a glass jug and nodded with a gloomy face. After the Zhou people and the demons reached an alliance, as the hub of the upper and lower domains of the demon realm, there were naturally unlimited business opportunities. It's a pity that if the lower realm falls, the unlimited business opportunity will suddenly become an infinite crisis. The bright future of the mountain is likely to be like a fragile glass pot, although it is shining, it will become crushed.
The glassmaker who set up the stall did not notice Unqi's face, he looked at Unqi's empty right sleeve, and said sympathetically: "Young man, you were originally a warrior, right? Our Pure Land Sect will not be so ruthless and unrighteous, have you seen that iron pillar? It is the Shina Pillar with the top of the pillar reaching to the sky, and the sect master is personally recruiting believers under the Shina Pillar, do you want to take a look?"
A spark flashed in Wu Enqi's eyes, he had long thought about meeting the mysterious clan of the Pure Land Sect for a while, and he didn't expect that there was nowhere to find it when he stepped through the iron shoes, and that guy actually dared to show his face openly.
Unki took Zhulan Tuya's hand and quietly left the glassmaker's stall. Jurantuya looked at Unchi in amazement, and she noticed that his hands were shaking with excitement.
Julan Tuya asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
Wu Enqi said: "Zhulan, I'm fine. Zhuoli Getu, the king of Yuheng, and Arjuna, the princess of Yuheng, regarded me as a father and son, and they loved me very much. Although I am not their precious son, I do not want to sit idly by and watch them be victimized by the traitors. I'll write a letter, and you will immediately help me send it to the Lian Zhen Palace in Yuhengfeng. ”
A hint of worry flashed in Zhulan Tuya's eyes, and she didn't want to deliver the letter, because she noticed something strange in Unqi's expression. But Julan Tuya has been a humble servant girl since she was a child, and obeying other people's orders seems to have become the biggest habit of her life.
So, Uenqi tore a piece of cloth from the placket of his shirt and wrote a short letter of informant in the voice of Yuheng's son. Unchi handed the letter into Zhulan Tuya's hands, and then hurried towards the pillar of Shinar.
